Even now, you still mind that I don’t have arms?

Gu Mingxi really spent more than a month working on devil’s tutoring (or cramming) with Pang Qian. He helped explain math and science to her and watched as she memorized English. He even took out a test that the advanced class had taken for Pang Qian to practice. Although this month of high-pressure learning caused Pang Qian to continually complain, when it was time for final exams, she was still greeted with unexpected results.

Her progress was very obvious. She came out as 24th in Class 7, and her year ranking also increased a lot.

Pang Qian still felt that she didn’t do well enough. Because she was careless, she got a lot of questions wrong. She thought that if she put in more effort next time, she might even make it into the class’ top 20. Xie Yi said before that as long as you make the top 20 in your class at each exam, getting into a four-year undergraduate program would be no problem.

As for Gu Mingxi, he was only 12th in the entire year. That took everyone by surprise.

But he didn’t seem to mind at all. Only Gu Mingxi knew that he didn’t study enough. Chinese, math, English, physics, and chemistry were all fine, but he didn’t put enough effort into history, politics, and geography. Those subjects required memorizing. Since he didn’t have much time to do it, it was natural that his results weren’t good.

When Li Han and Pang Shuisheng returned from the parent-teacher conference, Li Han looked gloomy while Pang Shuisheng was glowing.

Seeing Li Han in low spirits, Pang Shuisheng felt a bit guilty. He knew that his daughter worked on her homework with Gu Mingxi every night, and this must have affected his own studies. He said to Li Han, “Next semester, the kids’ studies will be more busy. I’ll tell that girl not to bother Mingxi.”

Li Han looked at him without a word.

Pang Shuisheng told Pang Qian about this, and she finally realized that she was dragging Gu Mingxi’s studies behind. In the most precious two or three hours of the day, he was actually explaining things to Pang Qian. She rarely saw him working on his own studies. Pang Qian had asked Gu Mingxi if he’d finished his homework, and he just said that he already finished most of it at school. He’d be fine doing a little bit later.

Now it seems that he was lying to her.

Pang Qian told Pang Shuisheng, “I know, Dad. I won’t go to his house anymore.”

Li Han similarly spoke with Gu Mingxi, but with regards to Pang Qian not coming over anymore, he couldn’t agree to it.

Li Han found it difficult to understand. “Qian Qian’s studies aren’t bad right now. Mingxi, you don’t have to be responsible for her grades. If you could guarantee that you’d stay in the year’s top 5, I won’t oppose you tutoring Pang Qian. But right now, look. You always go to sleep in the middle of the night, and your scores have dropped out of the top 10.”

Gu Mingxi didn’t want to explain to Li Han why there was a discrepancy between his science and humanities scores. He just promised, “I’m still going to help Pang Qian. We agreed to get into the same university. As for my own scores, Mom, I promise to you that next semester, I’ll definitely make it into the year’s top 5.”

Li Han asked, “And if you can’t make top 5?”

He said, “If I can’t, then I’ll stop tutoring Pang Qian.”
